Update: After turning off security it connected..rebooted a few times solid connect..Turned security back on (still using WEP, 128-bit) Now it locks in everytime.. Thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] dohturdima:
Wonder how you were able to do that - my TBPro would not do a batch restore at all, had to switch the App mode to "classic" setting and restore apps one by one...

---------- Post added at 03:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:45 PM ----------

I tried extracting from Nandroid backup it it still would not work, had to force close. The only TBPro method that works is the one above.

I have MyBackup Pro as well, will try that one too.

I didn't update Ti today, not yet at least. Still on 4.7.0 - can't explain why it didn't work yesterday through many attempts (even trying a fresh install of this ROM), but worked today. Regardless, it's working now so I'm a happy camper. It's possible I wasn't patient - as the restore seems to be MUCH slower than it was before. Ti usually zips through it, ya know?

I did just upgrade to 4.7.1 and batch restore is still working. Just slow. :)

I did not try to extract it from a nandroid backup. Don't believe labels apply to that restore option, but you can select individual apps via a checklist still. Not a bad thought. :)

I wish I had a good answer. All I did was go to work today. lol No changes to the phone settings at all. Just doesn't add up. I now have a log cat and kmsg dump of a valid batch restore. How long are you waiting for it to restore? Give it at least a minute... might take awhile to show any progress. You have "Unknown Sources" checked under Settings -> Applications right?
[Epic 4G Android Development] QMaverick:
all hail the mighty and wise CM7 mods who have put up with WiMax questions for entirely too long! :-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] AmericanJedi001:
I highly recommend you switch to WPA2-AES (not plain "WPA", but "WPA

2

") encryption on your router, dude. WEP, even 128-bit, is pretty crackable these days. If your client devices (phone, laptops, etc.) support WPA2-AES, you should bump up to it, it's much more secure.

Not all routers will list the "AES" part, some may just say "WPA2." If you have the option to choose between AES, TKIP, or AES+TKIP, pick AES-only. AES is stronger than TKIP, and AES+TKIP doesn't mean they're multiplied together! :rolleyes: AES+TKIP means if AES fails, then fall back to the weaker TKIP encryption.

Start with the highest encryption capability, WPA2-AES, then work your way down as necessary to support legacy devices. WPA2 > WPA > WEP, and AES > AES+TKIP > TKIP. (If you're WiFi security options are that granular.)

When did TB force close? I only ask because I was able to get the data to load in the app, I just didn't go through and restore anything. It had all the checkboxes for all the apps (data and system) but I didn't go through with it, was kind of just messing around at that point in time.

I installed the new wimax version yesterday.. Awesome news that Wimax works now, btw.. but I noticed the kernel seems to be missing the tun patches (for openvpn).. /dev/tun is not present. I know it was present in previous releases so I guess maybe someone forgot to patch it into this verison? I did a uname -r and the kernel version is "2.6.35.7-gae7ed13-dirty"

Just noticed two things. The built in wifi tether keeps being recognized as a new network each time I turn it on (on three different pc's). Each time it connects it'll add a number at the end Android 2, Android 3, Android 4, ect and ask to specify what type of network it is public, home, ect. Also the wifi tether notification toggle doesn't properly turn tether on/off half of the time. Some times it will turn on then vanish and needs to be toggled off then on again, and sometimes when turning off it shows unchecked but says it's still active and will error repeatedly if you try to start it again. It happens a lot and requires a reboot to fix.
[Epic 4G Android Development] AproSamurai:
If I may ask, did you incur any name changes when tethering? While it was active? If so have each device(computer, iPod, etc) forget the access point then shut it(Portable Tether) off and give it any other name and turn it back on and set up the access point again. I've not had an issue with the 2, 3, 4's being added, I just tried to replicate your issue and got AproSamurai(Access Point) on my laptop, my Kindle Fire, as well as my iPod. It can sometimes take a while for the Access Point to be acknowledged but other than that I'm not having the issue you are.

My Laptop however is on Linux, so it could perhaps be the way that Windows is perceiving it. If I'm gathering that correctly.
[Epic 4G Android Development] codest3r:
Nevermind. I just realized I'm on nighlty 5, pre-WiMax. My nadroid restore took me back a version and I didn't realize it. Hence, my earlier issue with Ti restoring apps on WiMax release still stands. Frack!

Is this basically nightly 5 + wimax, or is this RC0 (original one) + wimax? I just got nightly 5 up and running and it's sooooooo perfect, not sure if other than wimax this is a step backwards in the updates.

[Epic 4G Android Development] hayzooos:
Is this in a different thread because WiMax won't technically be 'official'? If that's the case, are the devs planning on incorporating all bug fixes into the WiMax version, maintaining two threads and two versions? Or am I totally off base here, and this is now the new standard?

If it's the former (two threads, two versions) I cannot thank you enough. 3G is HORRID around Chicago, and 4G flies.

Yep stock battery and the kernel that came with CM7 so no oc/uv.

Oh, that could be it.. Wonder if there is a way to disable that.

Not terrible if you want to give it a try try samurai even when i'm on my 1500 mAh stock battery i got about 14 to 16Hrs with light/med usage, and about 4-6Hrs on heavy usage.

With my 3500mAh on samurai i got 15Hrs with heavy usage straight streaming music and it still wasnt dead i was at 40%. and with light/moderate use i can get 1+days. last week i got 1 day and 5 hrs or whatever close to that amount and only dropped 10% so i was @ 90% battery with a day!

Pretty amazing and to be honest i didnt see much difference with stock CM kernel. My experience with samurai has been better.

I was just currently playing GTA 3 @ 1.2/1.5Ghz with GPU Overclocked to 250-325Mhz and i was @ 80% aand dropped to 67% and played for 40 mins lol

Awesome in my mind
[Epic 4G Android Development] codest3r:
I think the LED is supposed to be your warning you're below 15% - that's CyanogenMOD.

As for Autostarts - it works for me - Superuser did prompt me to give Autostarts permission before it modified a setting, but it did work after I gave it permission. Possibly you have an issue with superuser?
[Epic 4G Android Development] tbob18:
Can you actually change anything though?

I meant to say, I had to kill the process off after waiting for 20 minutes or so as TB was stuck on the first app of the batch restore. Was only able to restore TB apps and data one by one after selecting "classic" from the app menu in settings. Most of the apps/data would restore OK, but others would get stuck. TB would have to be killed off and restarted through the app settings.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Zeinzu:
No I didn't rename it. Named it "Android" before ever trying to connect, but each time I disconnect and reconnect it reads on any of my pc's as the number of times I've connected aka "Android, Android 2, Android 3, ect" then prompts me for what kind of network I want it as aka "Public, Home, ect".

I've tried removing the network. It still connects reading the next number in the number of times it's been connected and still prompts me for network type.

I would like to add that my personal favorite feature is the status bar on the bottom, puts the toggles closer to the hardware buttons and keyboard. Once I put that on there, and switched back, I realized that the notification bar has always been wrong lol

I don't think I will use another ROM ever, this phone is rock solid, and this really makes the Epic a winner. This might still be Sprints best phone...

I had this issue a few times on a pre-wimix nightly (4, I think). I don't know if it was coincidence because of the reboot that was required, but fixing permissions seemed to correct the issue (maybe that element of the ui has the wrong file permission in the zip? I'll look into it a little more...)

But I just tested and can confirm that swiping a notification is not currently freezing my status bar - I cleared one notification, then, to be thorough, I started swiping one and then put it back so it didn't clear (that seemed to be what triggered the freezes for me previously). I'm on the recommended wimax rc0 with stock kernel
